MBIA Inc., with our affiliates ("MBIA" or "we"), is sensitive to privacy issues on the Internet.  Set forth below is the Privacy Policy applicable to this website and MBIA's Client Connection Service (the "Site").  The Privacy Policy explains how we collect information from you on the Site, what we do with this information and how you can contact us regarding such information.  We believe it is important that you know how we treat the information about you that we receive on the Site.

In addition to carefully reading the Privacy Policy, please click here to read our Terms and Conditions of Use and the Acceptable Use Policy, which explain how you may use the Site.

INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT.

Personally identifiable information:  In order to use certain features of the Site, we may request that you provide us with personally identifiable information, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, fax number, client identification number, resume or other personally identifiable information (“Personally Identifiable Information”).  All information that you provide through the Site is sent to and stored on servers located in the United States.

We may collect and we (including our affiliates) and our business partners may use Personally Identifiable Information to respond to your inquiry, email you content or alerts (including updates to the Site or to the Online Terms or this Privacy Policy) or allow you to access specific account information.  In addition, we may use any Personally Identifiable Information submitted in response to our job advertisements in our review process, which may include disclosure to affiliates and third parties assisting us with our review.

We endeavor to use administrative, technical, personnel and physical measures to safeguard personally identifiable information in our possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure or modification.

Non-personally identifiable information:  In general, you can visit the Site without being asked to reveal any Personally Identifiable Information. However, our web servers collect some information that does not personally identify you.  For instance, we collect and log the Internet Protocol address of a visitor’s computer (which is the address of your computer on the Internet), the browser a visitor is using (e.g., Internet Explorer), the operating system (e.g., Windows) and the domain names that you have visited before entering and after leaving the Site.  This information is aggregated to measure statistics about our visitors, such as the number of visits to the Site, the average time spent on the Site and the pages viewed on the Site.  We use this information to monitor the use of and to improve the content of the Site.  Except in connection with certain permitted disclosures to law enforcement (discussed below) and certain technical features of the Site (e.g., maintaining session status), We do not combine such information with Personally Identifiable Information and only uses such information in the aggregate.

INFORMATION STORED ON YOUR COMPUTER.

We may send text files (e.g., “cookies” or other cached files) or images to your web browser to store information on your computer.  Such text files and images are used for technical convenience to store information on your computer.  For instance, we may use a session cookie to store form information that you have entered so that you do not have to enter such information again.  We may use information stored in such text files and images to customize your experience on the Site and to monitor use of the Site.  You may set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie.  Many web browsers allow you to block cookies.
